Okay, you think that terrorists don't boast and lie and I think that they do.

Can you document that this man is lying? Please, provide a link. See, two can play that childish game.

My point is that I wouldn't use the boast of a terrorist to determine the extent of Al Qaeda's involvement in the rebellion. Lot's more information needs to be gathered. And there is other information.

The guy could be lying or he could be telling the truth.

My over arching point on the subject regardless of what Obama, Newt or Palin think is the following.

We need to remove Gaddafi the terrorist who has American blood on his hands.

"so I supposed you would worry about who to replace Toto with or hitler?"

If there was someone(s) worse than Toto or Hitler waiting in the wings? Yeah, you betcha.

Whether it's El Abidine Ben Ali, Saleh, al-Assad, al-Assad or Gaddafi, Iraq has clearly demonstrated that there are people, many people, much, much worse than the dictator de jour.

The fact that you'd ask the question speaks volumes about how little you understanding our current problems. And, the fact that Palin would say that "We should not be afraid of freedom, especially when it comes to people suffering under a brutal enemy of America", speaks to how little she understands about the region and its political dynamics.

As far as Palin goes, if you can document Al Qaeda's involvement then you may have a point, although even in that case, I don't think she would leave them "in charge".

Even assuming that the rebels in Libya aren't joined to Al Qaeda, it's naive in the extreme to think that if the rebels can't win on their own they'll be able to retain power without lots of money, equipment and blood from and of Americans.
